What 䵚 means
It appears in a regional word for sorghum.
The Song-dynasty Jiyun, a Chinese dictionary arranged by rhyme and completed in 1039, records 䵚黍 as a Guangxi dialect term. Vocabulary lists for Jin, a group of Chinese varieties, still include 䵚黍 as of 2026. Standard written Chinese also uses 高粱 or 蜀黍 for sorghum; 䵚 vs 高粱 is a regional-term versus standard-term distinction for the same grain.
Regional and specialized: this is grain vocabulary, so standalone use may puzzle readers outside that context.
Without 䵚黍 or an explanation, 䵚 alone can look like a typo.
